Let's jump right in...The picture at left is from VMI lacrosse's
season opener, a 16-5 loss at Navy Saturday afternoon. The Keydets fell behind early, but a solid performance from redshirt freshman keeper Kelly McMinn, as well as three goals from Tim Moran, helped keep the game somewhat competitive. LAX is back in action Saturday at West Point, taking on Army.
Baseball is on the verge of opening its season, with three games scheduled for this weekend. There is still snow on the field and on the grounds as a whole, but at this moment, the games are still on. There certainly will be updates on the web site if that changes.
Also for baseball, I'm told that the season preview and the entire media guide will go onto the web site either today or tomorrow. Also scheduled to debut in the next 48 hours is a player blog for baseball, written by Tanner Biagini...No official title yet, but these blogs have gotten good reviews for other sports, and this one should be no exception.
Basketball split its North Carolina road swing, including pulling out a huge win at Gardner-Webb. That victory, coupled with the Keydets' victory over HPU earlier in the season, puts VMI at the #8 spot in the Big South standings with three games to play...And those three games begin tonight, as High Point comes into Cameron Hall for Senior Day. Tip is at 7 p.m.
Track and Field competed in two meets this weekend, with a Lindsey Carty PR pacing the teams at Liberty and five IC4A qualifying marks coming in Akron, Ohio. There's a question right now where the Keydets will next compete, as they may send a few competitors to Virginia Tech this coming weekend. The conference championships will be the following weekend, Feb. 27-28, in Clemson, S.C.
Wrestling dropped a pair of SoCon duals this week, falling to UNC Greensboro and App. State. Senior night is Friday evening, as the Keydets host Chattanooga.
That's all for this week...Check back next week, when we just might have the first baseball results of the new year.
